I’m a man of my word.
Stumbling around South Beach early, earrrrrly in the A.M. I came across T-Dot hustlin’ his mixtape with a friend. T-Dot hooked me up with a mixtape in exchange of a blog post. $$T-Dot x The DKA Life Callabo$$ doin’ it big. I’m gonna pass on a couple of my favorite songs to you all. Give him a listen.

Bendey's album artwork section in his portfolio has gotta be full by now. ha
Beautiful artwork once again from Mr. UAC himself.
I’m overcome with great sadness to announce that this will be the final Playlistings mixtape to release. Some of you may have noticed that past links have been removed by the RIAA because of copyright infringements. Although the VividUnderground and the DKALife attempt to bring you each day’s newest worry-free tracks that circumnavigate the globe within seconds each day in a legal manner, we can’t guarantee that each track doesn’t slip through the cracks and somehow inevitably prevents a multi-millionaire from making that down payment on a Bentley covered in gold (Bender is a little salty haha. I blame the record labels more than the artists themselves, since its normally the artists that are proud to show their new work *G.O.O.D Friday’s for example…one of the reasons I love hiphop is because the artists are constantly putting out great material…record label or not. In today’s world, you don’t really NEED a record label to be successful. ie. Cudi’s “Day and Night”, Drake’s “Best I Ever Had”. You just have to be good enough to get the attention of other artists and bloggers..and well, people)
I wouldn’t say there will NEVER be another Playlistings…but we’re definitely going to take a break. So enjoy it. Its been a pleasure.

DOWNLOAD THE WORLD’S GREATEST F’N THING RIGHT NOW
I’ve been excited for this volume to drop. It was only a few days ago that the rookie class was introduced to the Vivid/DKALife/hip-hop sector and it’s been nothing but G.O.O.D. music ever since. Kanye, XV, and Detroit’s very own Big Sean lock up the majority of the slots on this one. Chicago, Detroit, and hell, why not…Kansas City has earned it’s place on the map with XV’s “Vizzy Zone” mixtape coming out late last week. You’re about to get dialed in on this one! Quite possibly the best Playlistings yet imo.
Volume 7 Tracklist:
Kanye West – Runaway (feat. Pusha T) (For my opinion on the VMA performance, click here)
Wiz Khalifa – Black & Yellow
XV – Best Is Yet To Come (feat. Colin Munroe)
Chiddy Bang – Fuck You [Remix]
Pimp C – What Up (feat. Drake & Bun B)
Big Sean – Home Town
Kanye West – Monster (feat. Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Bon Iver, Nicki Minaj)
Fabolous – You Be Killin ‘Em
XV – Falling Awake
Jason Derulo – Liquor Love
P. Reign – Never Looking Back
Jeremih – Down On Me (feat. 50 Cent)
K-Young – Please Me (feat. Bobby Brackins & Yung Berg)
Stromae – Alors On Danse (feat. Kanye West & Gilbere Forte)
IYAZ – Fight 4 U
Jeremih – We Like To Party
Big Sean – My Closet
Taio Cruz – What You Need
XV – May The Force Be With You (feat. Killer Mike & Mac Miller)
Kanye West – G.O.O.D. Friday (feat. Common, Kid Cudi, Pusha T, Big Sean, Charlie Wilson)
Pitbull – Hey Baby [Drop It To The Floor] (feat. T-Pain)
Gorilla Zoe – Just Like My Chevy (feat. Snoop Dogg)

(notice the shoeprint)
This year, as backpacks are being filled, it’s a good idea to fill your iPod while you’re at it. This Playlistings release showcases a short (but potent) tracklist of hip-hop’s incoming freshman class. Although these names might be somewhat new, I can promise you they won’t be by the time you bomb that first exam. So to all those who are saddling up for a new year full of fresh pencils, pens, brand new kicks, and squeaky clean notebooks; you’ve got company. Check these new artists out.
Tracklist:
The Dean’s List – College Girls (feat. Jordan Brown)
Mac Miller – Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza
Kid Ink – All I Know (feat. Sterling Simms)
DLRN – Reset (feat. Prometheus Brown & Illecism)
Diggy Simmons – Great Expectations (feat. Bei Maejor)
Sean Brown – Change (feat. Ty$)
XV – We Zonin’
Los – Theme Song (feat. DC)
P.S. I feel bad for anyone who never had the chance to rock LA Gear’s back in the 90′s. I hope they make a return soon. Get those A’s kids.
DKA outttt.
